Make sure you bundle up with cold temperatures and frigid wind chills settling in this week in Door and Kewaunee counties. Monday and Tuesday saw wind chills that made it feel below degrees, with low temperatures in the single digits. Residents and visitors will get a reprieve from the extreme cold during the middle of the week before it returns for the weekend. Next week, temperatures will struggle to get out of the teens, with overnight temperatures failing to get above zero degrees on some days. Kewaunee County Emergency Management Director Tracy Nollenberg says cold-related ailments such as hypothermia and frostbite can happen quickly if you are unprepared.
Nollenberg says her department makes decisions on whether or not it will open warming sessions on a case-by-case basis, especially if they are needed for the overnight hours.
